The start of a flowing complex where the driver will be dancing on the throttle as he negotiates a series of Esses similar to Suzuka’s famous section. With a speed ranging between 240kph and 120kph, the driver will hardly touch the brakes through this section, instead applying more or less pedal travel.

The last corner, now known as Mansell after the famous tussle between Gerhard Berger and Nigel Mansell in 1990. The previous incarnation (known as Peraltada) was a banked, oval bend that was taken at close to 300kph, but is now a twisty complex with an average of 130kph.
